Dave’s hat fits!! And the plane rip-out was the last one, so it was finished and under the tree by Christmas morning. (I don’t know how people manage all of these Christmas knitting deadlines. One project strains my skills.)
And from the back:
Thanks again to Laura for the great pattern and for hosting the knit-along!
Looks GREAT! And as Nate just said, over my shoulder, “Wow, I’ve never seen a hayden on a guy before, and it works!” Good job. I’m happy it worked out for you.
